Summary0003138: Dead dwarf assigned unpathable coffin
DescriptionMy doctor was killed by a GCS that somehow managed to get to a staircase that made contact only with a lake. He was then assigned a coffin that was located in a room that can not be accessed unless the river is frozen, and is sitting around unburied because I am unable to revoke the use of that coffin.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationThere are other coffins around for him to be put in.

I'll see if I've still got it, but that was a couple months ago.

As requested, here is a test case for v34.11:
http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=7753 [^]

You can build coffins anywhere in the save, and dwarves will be assigned (regardless if the corpse/coffin is actually pathable).

This bug can make coffins difficult if you have split-areas or competing forts.
Would like to give the dwarves [i]something[/i] nice to look forward to after death :)

More info is provided in the test case.
Hope this helps
